Chapter 3 Time to Strike Back

Danny was at home, rushing threw the ghost zone to look for some answers.

"There's got to be someone who knows about Richard," Danny said as he flew across the green abyse. He stopped at a huge football and sighed.

"Didn't think I have to resort to this." Danny Moved the football out of the way. It was a portal to the real world, a portal to Vlads place.

Vlad was working on something inside his lab, humming to a certain tune.

"I need to talk to you Vlad!" Danny said as he rushed into the lab.

"Wow, that's something I thought I would never say." Vlad turned around with a chuckle.

"What is it Daniel? Wondering what I'll do to you next?" He said as Danny just glarred at him.

"You know mostly all about the ghosts in the ghost zone right?" Danny asked as Vlad just chuckled once again.

"Of course I do, but what is it to you?" He said as he turned his back to Danny.

"I need you to tell me about a certain ghost." Danny said as he flew over to Vlad's face.

"Well then fire away." He said as he once again turned his back towards Danny.

"There's this guy named Richard that appeared at school the same time a ghost wearing a cape appeared. Everytime Richard is gone this ghost always appears. He can also turn into a red dragon." Danny explained as Vlad kept on walking around.

"Hm, I don't suppose I know him." Vlad said as he stopped at a table, making Danny follow him. Suddenly, Vlad turned around and shocked Danny with some sort of device.

"But I would like to get to know him." Vlad said as he turned into Vlad Plasmius. He flew into the ghost zone as Danny turned back to his regular self, knocked out cold.

Sam and Tucker were knocking on the Fenton's door, seeing if Danny was home, but the only person that answered was Jazz.

"You looking for Danny?" Jazz said as Tucker and Sam nodded.

"Sorry, he said he went to the ghost zone to find out about some ghost." Jazz said as she clossed the door.

"Is he still thinking that Richard's a ghost. I can't believe him!" Sam yelled as they started to walk towards their houses.

"Give Danny time, he'll sooner or later realize it and get over it." Tucker said.

"Well, I still think we need to talk to Richard, just in case Danny goes after him." Sam said as Tucker agreed.

At Richards house, Richard was just laying back and watching TV, minding his own business. He had a bunch of posters of the Green Bay Packers everywhere.

"Wow, this is gonna be easier than I thought." Vlad said. He transformed back into his regular self and knocked on the door as Richards mom opened it.

"Hello, my name is Vlad Masters, multi-millionare and owner of the Green Bay Packers, may I see your son for a minute?" He said as Richards mom smiled.

"Hey Richard, there's someone here for you!" She hollared. Richard came down, but stopped with intense surprise.

"Vlad Masters? Oh my gosh its really you! What are you doing here?" Richard yelled as Vlad laughed outloud.

"I've heard of you Richard from all of my websites and everything so I thought I could give my number one fan a chance to meet with the Packers themselves, what do you say about that?" He said as Richard was going to hope in excitement.

"Wait a minute, what's the catch?" Richards mom said as she stepped in front of Richard.

"Oh there's no catch I assure you and I will be fully liable for anything that will, I mean, could happen to your son." Vlad said, but the mother still wasn't satisfied.

"Don't worry mom, he really means it! He's been liable for all of the Packer players, even for injuries outside of the game!" Richard yelled as the smile on his face started to change his mother's opinion.

"Okay, he can go." She said as Richard hopped in joy and Vlad chuckled under his breath.

"But if one thing happens to him! You'll regret it!" Richards mom snarled at Vlads face.

"Don't worry, he'll be fine." Vlad said as he walked out with Richard behind him. Richards mother sighed and went back to her regular duties.

Vlad clicked his fingers and a limo came in and the two of them entered.

"Richard my boy, I need to talk to you about something important." He said as the limo drove off into the forest.

A couple minutes later, Sam and Tucker made it to Richards house. Tucker knocked on the door and Richards mother answered it.

"Hello, I'm Sam and this is Tucker, we're friends of Richard, is he around?" Sam asked as Richards mother shook her head.

"No, he went with some football team owner named Vlad Masters." She said, making the two of them gasp.

"Vlad Masters?" Sam and Tucker yelled, making the mother jump a little.

"What? Is he bad?" The mother said as Sam had to have time to think. She grabbed Tucker, turned around, and hid his and her head from sight.

"Listen Tucker, we don't want her to worry so much so we have to play dumb." Sam said as Tucker nodded.

"Oh, sorry to worry you, we were just surprised of, um, how Richard was able to hang out with a star like Vlad." Tucker said as the mother just sighed.

"Ya, I went with him to once, he's a real swell guy." Sam said as the mother chuckled a bit.

"Okay, thanks for telling me." She said as she closed the door, making Tucker and Sam sigh with relief.

"C'mon, we have to go to Vlads place! Danny could be in trouble!" Sam yelled as they sprinted off to get their mopeds.

The Limo finally made it to Vlads house and the two of them walked out of the limo.

"So, Danny destroyed you lab? Why would he do that? All I've heard of Danny doing is saving everybody." Richard said as he walked out of the limo.

"Oh that wasn't the bad part, my lab was easy to fix anyways. As for why he wanted to destroy it is because he didn't want to be lower than me." Vlad said as the two of them walked into the mansion.

"What do you mean lower than you?" Richard asked as Vlad closed the door.

Vlad grinned towards Richard and transformed into Vlad Plasmius.

"Wow! Your a ghost too?" Richard yelled in surprise.

"Well actually I'm half ghost, but you get the point." He walked down the hallway and Richard followed.

"You see Richard, I am a briliant scientest, trying to conduct ways to defend myself from ghost. I usually just try to harnest my skills but when Danial got his ghost powers, he became jelous of me and started to fight back." Vlad said as the two of them entered his lab.

"And now I have him captive." Vlad said, pointing at Danny stuck on a electrical contraption.

"Wait? What are you gonna do to him?" Richard yelled as Vlad chuckled.

"Oh it's not what I'm going to do, it's what you're going to do." Vlad said with a grin.

"He's been blaming you for being a ghost all this time, hasn't this made you angry?" Vlad said as Richard clenched his hands with anger.

Danny finally woke up and saw the two of them.

"What? Vlad? Richard?" Danny yelled as he struggled to get loose.

"Now Richard! Show him what you're really made out of! Take all of your anger and pain towards him! Let him have it!"
